fiat money: it means that it does not represent real goods or goods, and the issuer has not cashed the currency into physical obligation; A currency that becomes legal currency only by government decrees. The value of fiat money comes from the owner's belief that money will maintain its purchasing power in the future. Money itself has no intrinsic value, that is to say, when the paper money comes into being, legal tender is essentially the negotiable paper money stipulated by law
the legal currency of the people's Republic of China is RMB, and the people's Bank of China is the national authority in charge of the management of RMB, which is responsible for the design, printing and issuance of RMB—— From the Internet
e-money: in fact, it is the electronization of legal money, including our common bank card, online banking, e-cash, etc; There are also third party payments developed in recent years, such as Alipay and WeChat payment. No matter what the form of these electronic money is and through which institutions it circulates, its original source is the legal money issued by the central bank
virtual currency: virtual currency refers to non real currency, and its existing state is intangible. The most important difference between virtual currency and electronic currency in narrow sense is the difference of issuers. Virtual currency is the electronization of illegal currency, and its original issuer is not the central bank. For example, game currency, q-coin, and ticket counting are mainly limited to circulation in a specific virtual environment
digital currency: digital currency which applies the latest digital network technologies such as blockchain, has the characteristics of Distributed Accounting, unique encryption technology, decentralized settlement, etc. Of course, digital tools with these characteristics must be supported by national credit if they want to become sovereign currency or legal tender
therefore, digital currency must be currency; In today's social system, money must also be sovereign money or legal tender. Secondly, digital currency must have the basic attributes and main functions of currency.

in recent years, "virtual currency" represented by bitcoin, Ethernet currency and Leyte currency has been traded centrally on some Internet platforms. With the help of financial technology, the price of these "currencies" has graally spread to investment, financing and other financial fields, which has aroused wide attention from all walks of life
not long ago, the people's Bank of China and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the announcement on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, which clearly regulated the relevant behaviors. Experts pointed out that "virtual currency" is not legal tender (legal currency) issued by monetary authorities, but a specific virtual commodity in essence

Electronic money means that a certain amount of cash or deposit is exchanged from the issuer and the data representing the same amount is obtained. By using some electronic methods, the data is directly transferred to the payment object, so that the debt can be paid off. Strictly speaking, consumers pay traditional money to the issuers of electronic money, and the issuers store the equal value of traditional money in the electronic devices held by consumers in electronic form. In short, when we deposit money into our bank account, there will be an extra number in the bank account, which means how much money we have saved. In this process, we give the banknotes in our hands to the bank, and the bank adds a number to our bank card, which is our electronic currencyfeatures:
< UL >e-money and paper money (or physical money) can be easily converted to each other
the data of electronic currency corresponds to the same amount of physical currency
we need to pay physical money to the issuers of e-money (banks and other financial institutions) in order to exchange for the same amount of e-money
3. The similarity between digital currency and electronic currency: both exist in the form of electronic data
The differences between digital currency and electronic currency are as follows:electronic currency has an issuing institution, and the corresponding amount of physical currency in the institution can be exchanged with physical currency; However, digital currency has no specific issuing institution (decentralization) and can only exist in network data
at present, there is no international consensus on whether digital currency is a currency or not, so in China, the main form of digital currency is "investment proct", which is a rather risky investment proct, and only a few businesses are willing to accept digital currency consumption; Of course, some countries (Germany, etc.) have officially recognized the currency status of digital currency
In recent years, the rise of financial technology drives the digital and intelligent development of finance, and the form of money is also evolving. Recently, the news of digital currency has attracted people's attention, and there is still a lot of gap with the current online payment
a few days ago, Indian Prime Minister modi announced the issuance of a new currency aimed at combating tax evasion and money laundering. In fact, if the central bank issues digital currency with perfect technology and mature mechanism, it will have better effect. Because the digital currency, in addition to anti-counterfeiting, with the help of blockchain technology, makes the capital data traceable and highly transparent. These features can also be used for macro data statistics and monitoring, which has positive significance for big data risk control
as for what bank digital currency is, the central bank requested at the meeting on January 20 this year that the research team of the people's Bank of China should actively absorb the important achievements and practical experience of digital currency research at home and abroad, continue to promote on the basis of preliminary work, establish a more effective organizational guarantee mechanism, and further clarify the strategic objectives of the central bank in issuing digital currency, Do a good job in tackling key technologies, study the multi scenario application of digital currency, and strive to launch the digital currency issued by the central bank as soon as possible.

digital currency:
is an alternative currency in the form of electronic currency. Both digital gold coin and cryptocurrency belong to digiccy. It can not be completely equivalent to the virtual currency in the virtual world, because it is often used for real goods and services transactions, not limited to online games and other virtual space. On January 20, 2016, the people's Bank of China held a seminar on digital currency, announcing that it is developing and striving for the early launch of digital RMB. At the meeting, many experts discussed the overall framework of digital currency issuance, national digital currency in currency evolution, cryptocurrency issued by the state, etc
"the issue of digital currency will make China's economy programmable to a certain extent, and make the economic and financial regulation and control have a clearer direction. The whole network distributed accounting mode implemented by digital currency will effectively enhance the credit of China's economy."

the number of banks (all kinds of deposits, i.e. deposit currency) whether through the counter passbook processing or online banking e-billing services. All of them are backed by the bank's own credit and the deposit insurance system after the marketization of interest rate. It does not have the legal compulsory effect, but has the similar liquidity because it can cash most of the time
